idea's ?

Re: idea's ?

Thank you for you answer, I look forward to the contest this year? I tried to do my own research on it like the rules stipulate, but couldn't find any information.

to say that defcon is not a place for n00bs i would say is incorrect tho. the con is very much "what you make of it". the atmosphere that defcon and its staff strive to create is one of perpetual learning for security enthusiast.

I was a little concerned cause i got the impression that n00b questions were frowned upon.

we have decided on a format and method of standings for this year.

Does this mean you do not need any ideas for this year?

Quite the opposite, Were always looking for new/challenging/interesting ideas.

Re: idea's ?

What might be interesting is if you could somehow split up big monolithic teams and make them cooperate with each other instead of staying insular and competitive. Not sure how to do that, but it's kind of a personal regret of mine that I spent half of my first con with the same batch of people I always hang with.

heh, sounds like a defcon mini game...
"ctf grab bag", all contestants are thrown into groups that are selected at random and then told to find a hack, first one to hack the box in question wins!"

iono about actf but that could be a cool contest on its own ;)
